Lean Turkey Zucchini Lasagna
Savor a light yet hearty lasagna that replaces traditional noodles with tender zucchini slices layered with lean ground turkey, creamy low-fat ricotta, and a rich, seasoned marinara sauce. This dish is perfect for a balanced meal that pleases your palate while keeping it lean and nutritious.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 cup Fresh Spinach
2 cloves Garlic
1 small Onion
1 teaspoon Dried Italian Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to resemble lasagna noodles. Lightly salt the slices and let them sit for 5 minutes to draw out excess moisture, then gently pat dry.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté chopped onion and minced garlic until fragrant and translucent.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Stir in dried Italian herbs, salt, and pepper.
Mix in the fresh spinach and allow it to wilt slightly before removing the skillet from heat.
In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce, then layer zucchini slices. Add a layer of the turkey-spinach mixture followed by dollops of low-fat ricotta cheese. Drizzle a bit more marinara sauce over the layers.
Repeat the layering until all ingredients are used, finishing with a top layer of zucchini slices and a light spread of marinara sauce.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for about 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until the top is slightly bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your light, protein-packed lasagna!
